requirements under Section 53E-3-501, the state board shall, in consultation with
361 
local school boards, school superintendents, teachers, employers, and parents
362 
implement core standards for Utah public schools that will enable students to, among
363 
other objectives:
364 
(i) communicate effectively, both verbally and through written communication;
365 
(ii) apply mathematics; and
366 
(iii) access, analyze, and apply information.

(b) align with each other the core standards for Utah public schools and the assessments
375 
described in Section 53E-4-303[.] ; and
376 
(c) ensure that the establishment of individual core standards, including subsequent
377 
modifications and additions, does not create a circumstance in which educators
378 
within the public education system cannot feasibly address each core standard due to
379 
the quantity and scope of the core standards, when taken as a whole.
380 
(3) The basic knowledge, skills, and competencies identified pursuant to Subsection (2)(a)
381 
shall increase in depth and complexity from year to year and focus on consistent and

392 
(c) conduct three public hearings that are held in different regions of the state on the

draft core standards for Utah public schools.
394 
(5) LEA governing boards shall design their school programs, that are supported by
395 
generally accepted scientific standards of evidence, to focus on the core standards for
396 
Utah public schools with the expectation that each program will enhance or help achieve
397 
mastery of the core standards for Utah public schools.
398 
(6) Except as provided in Sections 53G-10-103 and 53G-10-402, each school may select
399 
instructional materials and methods of teaching, that are supported by generally accepted
400 
scientific standards of evidence, that the school considers most appropriate to meet the
401 
core standards for Utah public schools.
402 
(7) The state may exit any agreement, contract, memorandum of understanding, or
403 
consortium that cedes control of the core standards for Utah public schools to any other
404 
entity, including a federal agency or consortium, for any reason, including:
405 
(a) the cost of developing or implementing the core standards for Utah public schools;
- 12 - 01-14 13:34  S.B. 111
406

National Education Programs, or Title 63J, Chapter 5, Federal Funds Procedures
411 
Act;
412 
(ii) conflicts with Utah law;
413 
(iii) requires Utah student data to be included in a national or multi-state database;
414 
(iv) requires records of teacher performance to be included in a national or multi-state
415 
database; or
416 
(v) imposes curriculum, assessment, or data tracking requirements on home school or
417 
private school students.
418 
(8) The state board shall:
419 
(a) submit a report in accordance with Section 53E-1-203 on the development and

implementation of the core standards for Utah public schools, including the time line
